A laboratory research study evaluates several different chemical injection concepts for the removal of elemental mercury from multiphase flow.
Experts and industry leaders gathered in The Woodlands, Texas, recently to sift through the challenges of carbon capture, utilization, and storage. The puzzle is coming together, but some critical pieces are still needed before the results look like the picture on the box.
This article from the SPE Sustainable Development Technical Section (SDTS) explores how the next phase of methane performance will be defined less by pledges and more by measurement, response, and verifiable results.
-
This paper proposes two new methods of accelerating the solidification (or mineralization) of CO2 in subsurface conditions, thus accelerating the cycle of the CO2 storage process. -
The aim of this study is to address and discuss the reservoir engineering aspects of geological hydrogen storage.
-
This paper examines the shortfalls of current CO2 capture and storage measures and their future within the context of increasing global consumption of fossil fuels.
-
A seismic prediction model is developed and presented in a case study to simulate the magnitude and timing of triggered seismic events with the intent to manage and mitigate environmental impacts resulting from induced seismicity during subsurface development activities.
-
Applications are open for the funding, which comes from the Inflation Reduction Act, for projects that help monitor, measure, quantify, and reduce methane emissions.
-
This paper presents efforts to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions and increase energy efficiency through the use of a real-time monitoring tool on exploration and production operated assets.
-
The exercise at Vineyard Wind’s Marine Coordination Center successfully evaluated Vineyard Wind’s ability to activate an incident management team and carry out the procedures in their approved oil spill response plans.
-
The objective of this study is to use expired medications as green corrosion inhibitors that can be used during stimulation treatments. Because the medications are expired and not fit for human consumption, the cost is inherently low.
-
This article explores the implementation of artificial intelligence vision for leak monitoring automation in the oil and gas industry and its role in improving safety standards, operational efficiency, and environmental performance.
-
This paper investigates the use of machine learning to rapidly predict the solutions of a high-fidelity, complex physics model using a simpler physics model.
